Because it’s Monday.

Because I decided to try a beverage last night that may or may not have contained vanilla vodka. And may or may not have tasted like candy…

Because the best things in life have a little sweet and a little tang…

I’m sharing a simple recipe that can be thrown together in a cinch and will make you look fabulous because of how stunning it really looks. It is care of my friend Natalie over at Perry’s Plate and it goes like this:

See how simple the crust is? I used honey from my bees, bzzzzz.

But you could use sugar.

Grated BUTTER! Can you believe it? It thrilled me to grate butter. It was a revelation. Thank you Natalie!

Eggs, honey, water, amen.

Blueberries and sugar, amen.

Brie! Is there anything better than baked brie?

A mound of it all in the center of a whole wheat crust.

A little gathering of the edges and a sprinkle of sugar for some caramelization.

And there it is. Beautiful and rustic and oozing. Just like all good things in life.

Give this a try sometime. It will satisfy and then some.

Blueberry Brie Galette

    Love the idea of baked brie with fruit pie – genius – you could probably switch out the blueberries for whatever happens to be in season at the market – correct?

    This makes me drool. I’m always so chicken of anything with pastry dough involved but this does look pretty simple.

    Brie. Brie! I heart brie! and I’m totally jealous of your honey and bees. We’ve got big bee problems in our neck of the woods, but someday they’re going to come back, and I’m going to figure out the hive thing and raise my own honey, amen.

    I love fruit with Brie. Makes perfect sense to bake them in a pie

    Beautiful gallete Georgia!
    Blueberries and brie are always favorites over here. In a pastry even better!
    “Because the best things in life have a little sweet and a little tang…” So very true 😉

    This galette is the most impressive I’ve seen. Sounds delicious, and what a clever idea to grate the butter

    Thanks again for the step-by-step!! I’m honored you chose one of my recipes!

    P.S. Ya’ll… don’t forget to freeze the butter before you grate it. 🙂

    Love this – great twist on the ‘fruit and cheese” course and perfect when an overly sweet dessert is just too much!
